[QUOTE=monkey11;39988018]BF2142: Deluxe for $4.50. Don't think. Just do.[/QUOTE] This and BF2
It's only up to 50% off in the UK :(
[url=http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2012-06-06-david-demartini-origin-wants-to-be-the-hub]Steam sales "cheapen intellectual property" says EA Origin boss.[/url] Oh how the tables turn.
Broke down and bought a game from Origin, prepare to install it, Origin tells me to install from steam instead...that's different.
Guess what they said about sales not doing anything is wrong.
I'm only getting the C&C bundle, I'm happy to see that they're trying out the whole "sales with more than 20% off" thing.
Its only up to 50% off in the uk.
This directly in the wake of CEO stepping down... stand-in CEO is probably like "Okay! -claps hands- We have fires all over the place from pissed off customers and that shit needs to get fixed ASAP. STEP-1, MASSIVE sales on the majority of our Origin titles! -points to someone- You! Go make it happen."

[QUOTE=Mr. Tripp;39988798]So I gave in and bought the Command and Conquer Complete Collection.[/QUOTE] But does it have the original unit sounds??
Anyone getting an error when trying to buy something? [img]http://puu.sh/2lrXv[/img] It says: Server error, unfortunately a techincal error has occured.
This sale is awful in the UK in comparison to those US prices. It's only up to 50% off too.

I'm not just being pessimistic, I like origin, but their shopping site and server system is ridiculous. Took me like 4 hours to buy Crysis 3.

[QUOTE=Worldwaker;39988405]Having $2k+, 6 years, and 200 friends invested in STEAM, they'll have to do better than sales to get my business.[/QUOTE] having 200+ games on sale up to 70% off, even on some that were released less than 2 months ago isn't a good sale? okay.
It's only a 50% off sale here in the UK, and some of these deals aren't that great because of their rather steep regular prices. At least the visual design for this sale doesn't look like it was done by a robot.

[IMG]http://puu.sh/2m3c9[/IMG] I didn't notice.... Maybe you should spam me more about it.
[QUOTE=mark6789;39988129]Yeah im that guy who wont buy because of EA and Origin. Sucks though because those are some good deals.[/QUOTE] I'm that guy who isn't going to buy anything because I got everything here, that I wanted, off of Steam sales already.

I can see EA growing desperate.
good because I like Origin as a client much better than Steam.
Do a lot of people still play BF2?
Oh god I want the C&C Collection. But alas.. No money to spend on it.
[QUOTE=Cairn Trenor;40003370]I can see EA growing desperate.[/QUOTE] Unlike steam sales, which are completely fucking awesome and universally loved. Nah, if EA has a sale its obviously an attempt to rip people off right?
May end up getting the BF3 perm pack seeing as I want the DLC.
Ah, fuck it. Bought C&C Ultimate Collection. Now I ge to Try C&C4, which I've heard is shit. Last C&C game I played was 3.
Ended up getting Sims 3 University. Got to love the Sims.
Anybody else having a problem getting the games they purchased to show up? None of the stuff I bought appears in "My Games" - I've never used Origin until now, and I hate it already. :(
